What Ails Germany T5y Samuel B. Harding Professor of European History, " Indiana University "Whoever can not prevail upon himself to ap

prove frqm the bottom of his heart the sinking

of the Lusitania, whoever can not conquer his

sense of the gigantic cruelty to unnumbered per

fectly innocent victims. . ......... and give him self up to honest delight at this victorious ex

You say that a good cause fallows even war I tH yu that a 2ood , war hallows every cause. Friederich Nietzsche, also Sprach Zerathrustra, the chapter of "Wars and Warriors." The Thrift Campaign How To Do It The campaign now in progress throughout the country to lend the government two billion dollars in $5 lots, has as its most important object the inculcation of the saving habit for the benefit of the lenders. To this end the unit of investment is made as low as 25 cents, while an accumulation of a trifle more than $4 at once draws interest at 4 percent compounded quarterly. In order that the full benefit of the "Thrift" education be obtained it is not desirable that money already invested in interest bearing securities, sav: ings banks, etc., should be diverted to this investment, but the entire amount ought to be saved out of current income, and, so far as possible, by giving up needless though customary expenditures. An exception should be made as to children's penny bank3 which, however, of course, do . not draw interest. There are almost innumerable ways in which these thrift accumulations may be secured. Some of those already" in practice may be suggestive of others. Parents buy "thrift stamps for their little children even the babies and take the WarSavings Certificates in their names, a Thrift

Stamp being bought whenever the parent feels that the quarter can be spared. 'A Quarter-a-Week" Clubs have been formed, each member buying a fhrif Stamp every wek $n$ fhs ting three $5 bonds by the end of the year; per? sons with larger incomes have made it a. "quarter a day;" thdse with still smaller incomes get a Thrift Stamp once in $v?6 or three weeks;- ' In one ladies' club each member uses every 25-ceiit piece that comes into her hnds tq buy a- Thrift Stamp. Soine employes arrange with their employers tq take a definite part out of their weekly ;wag n Thrift Stamps. Some children have asked their parents to give them stamps instead of foys for Christmas, and birthday presents. Some boys and girls earn the money esbecHy for, hi Rurr pose. Here are 15 ways in which they have done it already: , ... Beating carpets, waxing floors, sifting and lumping ashes, helping parents, cleaning cellars, washing windows, cleaning silver, cutting and sawing wood, varnishing chairs, tearing down old

chicken coops and fences and cutting up for fire

wood, caring for the neighbor s baby, messengers

for drug stores and doctors, selling magazines,

work in store Saturdays, waiting on table. Of course, this involves saying the dimes ; nicktes $nd

pennies that come into the possession of the child

Certain societies, like the University Club of

South Bend, take out a club certificate and pay

for it through collections taken from time to

time, or voluntary gifts of Thrift Stamps. In

short, there are numberless "ways t do it," if

only the person is determined upon the course. "Where there's a will there is a way," and there ought lo be fifty million wills in the nation to aid the government in its time of need, and at the same time train the people in economy and thrift. Savings Committee. War and Digestion From "My Home in the Field of Mercy" VERY humane indeed are the characters in Frances, Wilson Huard;s"pew book"My'rome in'tfce Field of Mercy" companion volume to the author's fafamous "My Home in the Field of Honour." There is M. Cm, for instance, who misses the good food of kindlier days. "What's the use of talking about it all," be groans. "This war has completely ruined my digestion. ' i'll never be the same again. . . . . you' understand, Madame, you are In the trenches, you are hungry, the dinner is late coming. You ju?t get nicely started, when Bing? another attack. By the time you get back your food is cold. The only day ie were lucky enough to have chicken a fpurJnch shell burst right over lis"."' Killed two and wounded two more. You can say what you like, put a thing like that takes your appetite away. . . i Ah, war is wonderful, but it does change one's habits so! ""At home my wife used to bring me; my chocolate in bed." But there are more poignant scenes than this in the story of the little hospital established by" the author in her beautiful chateau at Viliiers, once devastated by the attacking Huns and now gloriously rehabilitated into a home of mercy. The volume is illustrated by many distinguished sketches mad; by Charles Huard, Official Painter of the War to the Sixth Army of France.

PALLADIUM WANT ADS PAY

Some of the speakers had to make their addresses three or four times on the same evening. They were finally altogether exhausted, bathed in prespiration, despite the cold night; and yet the enthusiastic audience had ho pity for the orators, but made them go on. The whole thing was a demonstration the like of which even Chicago (where such events are by no means

rare) had never known. Two Peoples Mingle. "Irish and Germans sat together in the aisles and on the platforib; ' vfrellknown officials,' members of congress and of state legislatures,' professors anq clergymen, merchants and judge?. Members of the alliance were, present from all parts of the country from New York to San Francisco summoned to struggle against Anglo-Saxonism, to fight for the. new alliance, and to

receive the message of Germanism. The orchestra ' blayed now German, now Irish national songs, and many thousands of voices sang the 'Wacht atri Rhine,' or 'The Wearing of the Green.' ' And after this unforgettable hour Germans and Irish clasped hands and burying their ahclenty rivalry forever, they left the hair to Join in the common struggle against hypocrisy and political baseness." The author goes on to describe how the union of Germans and Irish has been Imitated in other cities, and how it manifested its influence in the press andin politics. He discusses also the American Truth Society, founded by the Irish in New York in 1912, to take up the battle against the offensive and" defensive alliance between England and the 'United States, to whose establishment" Andrew ' Carnegie is repre: sented by Germans as ready to devote all his means. O'Leary Is Mentioned, The editor of the Irische Blatter, in a footnote to the article, calls attention to the fact that the president of tlie American "Trulli "Society is" the "Well-known Irish publicist Jeremiah O'Leary." Under the heading "Ireland and

America." there also appears, in the same (May) nuiriber of the Irische Blatter, an unsigned communication purporting to express the views of "us Irish' on the situation in the Emerald Isle at year after the outbreak of April, 1916. The author laments the defection of "Ireland's old ally, France," and particularly the fact that the United States, traditionally "the land of freedow and of democratic idealism, the abode Of peace, has joined the English vampire in itB war of conquest against Germany and all Europe." After pointing out the ancient ties between Ireland and America, the writer asks: ; "But " what importance has the friendship of the'Irish people in comparison" with the business interests of the American munitions industry and the American htute finance? In American public life there is ho longer room for idealism for the "maintenance of the ancient principles of the rights of man.

Contrast Attitudes. The author contrasts President Wilson's attitude with that of George Washington and finds "consolation" in these words, which he puts in the mouth of the first President: "Irish patriots, champions of liberty in ail lands, remain firm in your faith. Your cause is my cause. You, too, are the objects of calumny, as I was. I triumphed.' Had I been conquered, my fate would have been the scaffold. Now, however, even by foes do mp honor.

HOOVER ASKS TO TESTIFY

WASHINGTON, Dec. 18. Food Ad mlnisltratof Hoover, personally appeared yesterday at senate committee Investigation of the sugar shortage and asked to make a statement of bis version of conditions. The committee, after considering th request in executive session, went on with the questioning of President Spreckfels of the Federal Sugar Refining cordpaDy, one of the food administrators' chief critics without announcing any decision on Mr. Hoover's request. The food administrator then left the committee room.

There's But One Safe Way to Buy I keep in close touch with market cpnditions of food products. I am correctlyinformed as to the cash and food value of practically every article of table and baking use. My knowledge and close acquaintance with baking materials and their quality and money, worth passed on to you in my articles, should aid in the selection of proper foods at proper prices. You have often heard the expression that "water seeks its own level." This same thought might well be applied to merchandise. Inferior merchandise may find a ready demand when first put on the market but its inferiority is soon found out and its sale usually takes a slump. Hence I have come to the conclusion that the biggest seller is the best buy. When some certain brand is given a wide preference over all similar merchandise it means but one thing merit has proved it best. i So it follows that if housewives would purchase only merchandise ,that meets the greatest demand their buying would be far more satisfactory. I have noticed invariably that the demand for a product always verifies the value of a product determined By scientific tests which proves my contention conclusively. Take baking powder. The biggest selling brand on the market today proved to me by the most critical experiments that it is entitled to the preference it has gained. There are more pounds of Calumet sold than any other brand of baking powder. Usage has proved its superiority my tests pointed to the same fact. The woman who buys Calumet eliminates all possible waste. She profits by the experience of millions of women who after testing many different brands of baking7 pOwder find Calumet best. It is Safe to buy because over- . Whelming choice shows the supreme satisfaction it renders the vast : majority of housewives. 1 I have made investigations and trips through many plants that" manufacture food articles, and I have yet to find a finer and better equipped, more up to date, sanitary plant . thari that of the Calumet Baking Powder Co. Anyone who will visit this plant will readily understand why they should and how they do manufacture baking powder that fills all the requirements. , NOTE.
